I bought this for a friends birthday. It arrived late, thankyou Littlewoods, I tried to return it, all sorts of problems later, I decided to try it for myself. I usually use NIKON. I found this dslr to be plastic, lightweight and toylike. Not my preference. Although my kids loved it.

Canon's Rebel SL1 prioritizes size and weight above all else, so it's missing features, but it's one of the most portable entry-level DSLRs available.

Reduced size and weight make this camera portable

It has poor battery life at just 340 shots per charge

I've had this camera for a couple of years now and it has yet to fail me. I found it to be a perfect starter SLR camera for someone looking to get into photography. It's pretty light weight and I've taken it on many hikes.

If you are looking for an excellent and small DSLR, look no further. This is the smallest DSLR that I have seen. I bought it for my wife who has a very difficult time with my full-frame cameras. She loves the size and the weight. The kit includes two versatile lenses in the 18-55mm and the 75-300mm.

Small with full range of SLR features

Strap very fiddly to fit and no plastic cap for the hot shoe

The perfect camera to start off photography in the DSLR world. Decent ISO sensor, sturdy build, nice features and very portable. Bundled 18-55mm lens is perfect for general purpose photography; focal range is decent, image quality is great for a kit lens, f-stop range could be better but still good...

perfect starters DSLR cam; great portability

Nothing so far

Camera bag missing as mentioned in product details.

A fantastic DSLR for amateur photographers - I would definitely recommend this. Great kit lens and a telephoto lens. Good value for money.

Easy to work with, light enough to carry it all day. Takes great pictures. Very nice camera and the accessories are great use to.

Absolutely amazing camera regarding quality of photo's,ease of use etc. However it is very vulnerable to water ingress. I got caught in a rain shower and the camera got very slightly wet, and I honestly mean VERY SLIGHTLY. It would not turn on after that.
